Chapter 251 Shiina Tatsuki Goes Up to A
Because the train that Shiina Riki took was one later, by the time Takamatsu Akari was about to arrive at the stars.
What she saw was Shiina Riki's head resting against Shiraaki's back.
His amber eyes trembled slightly, and Takamatsu stood rooted to the spot, no longer daring to move forward.
Her slightly rapid breathing, caused by walking quickly, stopped abruptly, as if afraid of disturbing them.
Why... is Riki-chan hugging Aki...?
Gao Songdeng was deeply puzzled.
Although Takamatsu had experienced the feeling of embracing Shiraaki for various reasons, she felt a different way when she actually saw someone else embracing Shiraaki.
Seeing the two make a move, Takamatsu Akari instinctively shrank behind the wall in fear.
Right now, Takamatsu Akari is in the exact same corner where Yamada Ryo had tried to stay and eavesdrop.
……
one way or another?
Li Xi's words seemed somewhat heavy.
Bai Qiu sighed inwardly, but simply assumed that Li Xi was just being emotional.
"Of course," Bai Qiu said softly, trying to comfort Li Xi. "When have I ever lied to Li Xi? You can come to my house too."
"I've been to Lixi's house so many times, it's time to invite Lixi to come and visit me, and let Lixi try my cooking."
"...So it's settled?"
A glint of white light flashed in Shiina Tatsuki's purple eyes, and she spoke with some uncertainty.
Bai Qiu smiled and said, "It's settled."
Seeing that Li Xi remained silent, but feeling that the pressure on her back had obviously weakened, Bai Qiu couldn't help but ask, "Li Xi, can I turn around now?"
He was starting to feel uncomfortable after maintaining one position for so long.
Shiina Tatsuki hesitated for a moment, quickly rubbed her eyes, and then slowly and reluctantly moved her head away from Shirai's back.
She also took a small step back, giving Bai Qiu enough space.
Bai Qiu turned around, stretched her limbs slightly, and smiled at Li Xi.
Shiina Riki glanced at Bai Qiu secretly, then lowered her head in embarrassment, thinking about what she had just done.
"Lixi, don't be shy."
After noticing the few tears welling up in Li Xi's eyes, Bai Qiu smiled and said, "I'll keep it a secret, just like last time."
Shiina Tatsuki didn't pick up the conversation, hesitating for two seconds before speaking.
"I have one more thing."
"what's up?"
Facing Bai Qiu's direct gaze, Shiina Riki unconsciously swallowed, her voice sounding slightly trembling.
"Bai Qiu, how do you see me?"
After hearing this, Bai Qiu blinked. "Li Xi, can I not answer?"
Bai Qiu felt quite embarrassed to answer these kinds of questions in person in front of the other party.
"No, I want to hear it."
Shiina Tatsuki raised her head and looked at Bai Qiu with a stubborn expression.
"Alright." Bai Qiu shook his head helplessly.
Since things have already come to this, I might as well say something.
"Let me think about it..."
As Bai Qiu looked up in thought, Shiina Tatsuki's gaze followed, her heart gradually tightening with unease.
"Although I haven't known Li Xi for a particularly long time, if someone asked me who I think is the most dedicated person in the band, I would definitely vote for Li Xi."
“Lixi handled many things in the band by himself, big and small, but he never complained to anyone.”
Bai Qiu concluded, "From this perspective, Li Xi is a serious, responsible, and uncalculating person."
"Although they are just ordinary words, they are all from the bottom of my heart, Lixi."
"Well, I believe you."
Shiina Tatsuki suddenly responded.
Bai chuckled softly, then continued, "Aside from the band..."
"Li Xi's expression is rather cold, especially when facing strangers. When I first met Li Xi, I also felt that Li Xi was not easy to get along with."
"Later, with my own efforts, things turned out alright."
"Oh right, does Lixi not have any friends at school besides Hailing?"
Bai Qiu gave Li Xi a strange look and asked, and when he saw Li Xi's embarrassed expression, Bai Qiu understood. He shook his head with amusement and continued.
"But once you get to know him, you'll realize that Lixi is actually a very caring person, like how you often bring lamps home."
"Lixi is also very generous. He may sound fierce and strict, but he will actually treat Le Nai to a matcha parfait."
"She's been treating me to coffee a lot lately. Last time I went to buy coffee myself, Ms. Rinrinko said that you told her that if Shiraaki bought it, you could just put it on her tab."
Upon hearing Bai Qiu's words, Shiina Tatsuki's gaze seemed to drift somewhat shyly to the ground.
But as soon as Bai Qiu finished speaking, he hurriedly raised his head again.
"Of course, Lixi also has some bad points."
"For example, he has a quick temper, but I know that Lixi is straightforward, and I also prefer straightforward people. Too much beating around the bush is just troublesome."
“Li Xi has high standards for music, which is a good thing, but he tends to impose his high standards on others, which is not quite right.”
“Lixi also has a few catchphrases he often uses, such as ‘tsk!’ ‘Ha?’ ‘Seyaku!’” Bai Qiu deliberately imitated Lixi’s tone and couldn’t help but laugh.
After suppressing his smile, he said gently, "However, I still admire Li Xi for who she is."
"And there's more..."
As Bai Qiu uttered one sentence after another about her, Shiina Riki felt her vision blurring again.
The tears she had just managed to suppress welled up again from her eyes.
The pretty lip gloss I applied to my lips has long since been wiped away.
I'm not as good as you say...
She's clearly not gentle at all, yet you always treat her gently.
At this moment, Shiina Riki had only one thought in her mind. She took a step forward and moved her hands, which had been hanging naturally at her sides and were now clenched tightly.
The direction it moved was Bai Qiu's right hand.
Shiina Riki's slender and soft little hands naturally couldn't cover Bai Qiu's big hands, but she tightly wrapped Bai Qiu's fingers in her palms and then clenched them.
As their skin touched, both of their hands trembled slightly, and Shiina Ritsuki felt her cheeks burning hot.
"Lixi, you...?"
Bai Qiu stopped abruptly and looked down at Li Xi, whose expression seemed off.
"In this case......"
Holding her breath, Shiina Riki's long eyelashes trembled, her eyes filled with shyness and timidity, yet also with a firm response to Bai Qiu.
"If I do this, you should understand what I think of you, right?"
Shiina Riki knew in her heart that if she continued to be too shy to show her feelings in front of Shiraaki, it would be a disaster.
If we don't do something soon...
Bai Qiu will definitely be snatched away by someone else.
It could be Chu Hua, it could be Xiang Zi, it could be Su Shi, Ai Yin, or even some other woman she doesn't know.
Compared to the others around Bai Qiu, Shiina Riki always felt that she was the one furthest away from Bai Qiu.
It seems that she was the last person to know Bai Qiu, and at the beginning, she even harbored hostility towards Bai Qiu.
Later, with Bai Qiu's repeated help, she finally let down her guard and became his friend.
She's such a troublesome person.
So this time, she was going to be brave and overcome her feelings of inferiority.
Bai Qiu seemed to close her eyes with a touch of melancholy before slowly opening them again.
Just days ago, he was so certain that Li Xi could never like him, and the boomerang he left behind finally struck him squarely between the eyebrows.
Both of their fingers seemed a little cold, but the contact generated warmth and a slight dampness.
"Lixi, you like..."
Bai Qiu took a deep breath and was about to speak, but before he could say "Do you like me?", Shiina Riki cut him off.
"Yeah, I like you."
